Default Removing windshield tape from a 7year old car?

my S2000 is a MY00, think i would be ok removing the tape? or has it been too long.

What would be the best way to remove it, if its still possible...


Thanks in advance!

i removed mine from my 00 last october.. took me about 2 hours to get all the glue residue off that it left behind but paint looks brand new and shiny.

to remove the residue i put goo gone on a rag and did a lot of rubbing with my fingers.
